TEX Roundtable 1 - Network IT-isation: Shaping the Carrier Future with NFV, Open Source, and SDN technologies – moving beyond traditional carrier offerings
The phenomenon of “Network IT-isation”, bringing NFV and open-source SDN technologies to the network, has received a great deal of attention. As new technologies continue to evolve, open network virtualisation strategies are reshaping the telecom carrier ecosystem, bringing forward new opportunities and challenges. The ongoing shift to cloud services and mobile internet technologies is driving service providers and their suppliers to improve their efficiency and agility. This panel will explore how network virtualisation can advance the carrier business model, enabling them to create “network-differentiated” propositions for the provisioning of cloud networking, larger network-as-a-service offerings and cloud infrastructure services.
